    Authentic Mexican cuisine, so delicious! A complimentary basket of tortilla chips and salsa & queso dipping sauces was quickly brought to our table upon seating. Casual/comfortable dining area with ample seating. I ordered the Chicken filled Empanadas with a side salad. I received 4 large piping hot Empanadas which were outstanding. My date order the steak Fajitas with a side of rice and beans which very plentiful and delicious. Located on the main drag in picturesque Historic Downtown Lenoir.

    Visiting from out of town. Had a facial at Wolf Moon Salt Spa with my daughter. They recommended this place to us for lunch. The food was fabulous. Attentive staff. Authentic cuisine for sure!

    Half of the chicken fajitas I was served! Enough for a leftover meal or for two people to share.

    Visiting from out of state and my parents love this place. Great food and friendly, attentive service! The chicken fajitas and burritos are delicious and generously portioned. A definite yes.

    This should be your new go-to spot!! Topnotch service, foods, drinks, and management. I cannot recommend this restaurant more!! I was passing through for a work trip. Ordered the Molcajete (pictured). Wow... just wow. Such great flavor and SO authentic. The margaritas were fantastic as well. I had to order a second one! And the atmosphere and ambiance were just amazing. I sat in the window and people watched as I enjoyed this fabulous meal. And the wait staff were so helpful! I kept getting checked on and had great conversation with them as well! 10/10 no doubt. Please go check them out! And an added bonus... want dessert? They own a great ice cream store next door too! You won't regret it!

    The building owner has made it impossible for them to do business in downtown Lenoir just as they did for the previous two occupants.
